Report
Telecommunications Sector in LATAM
Given macroeconomic and political instability, the investment rate of the region tends to be low, leading to poor infrastructure, in particular, for telecommunications. Regulatory environments do not provide stable conditions for investment, presenting a further barrier to investment in the sector. As demonstrated by the reduced amount of radio spectrum allocated in the majority of the countries of the region by national governments, the environment is not very attractive to investment. In this context, the region lags behind considerably in the adoption of technologies: 4G has just become in 2019 the most used technology to transmit data, with only a few countries having plans to start the use of 5G. In addition, as the region consists of huge megalopolises with vast tracts of low population density, it requires efficient and clear incentives for investment.
Report
Western Europe Economic Outlook
The Western European economy entered 2021 on a feeble footing, with the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic having triggered the reimposition or tightening of lockdown measures across many countries in Q4 2020. Despite the launch of vaccine rollouts, the region’s economic recovery is now being threatened by a third wave of the pandemic. Nevertheless, with vaccine programmes progressing and government policy measures continuing to support households and firms, the regional economy is expected to grow by 4.5% in 2021, following an estimated contraction of 6.8% in 2020.

Eastern Europe & Central Asia Economic Outlook
Macroeconomic developments in 2020 were dominated by the outbreak and spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. Regional output collapsed in the first half of the year, as growing case rates and pandemic-related lockdowns caused domestic demand to plunge. Manufacturing and services activity were hit sharply by major supply chain disruptions along with the slump in activity both domestically and globally. GDP contracted by an estimated 3.2% on average across the region in 2020.
